CLOUDBACKUP FOR MAC

Your cloud folders, safe on your own drive.

CloudBackup is a menu bar app for Mac. It backs up your OneDrive accounts or any other folders incrementally to an external drive, verifies every copy and keeps earlier versions. The source is never changed.

FEATURES

So a backup really is a backup.

Every rule in CloudBackup has one goal: you can rely on the copy on your drive.

The source stays untouched

CloudBackup only reads. Nothing in OneDrive or in the source folder is ever changed, moved or deleted.

Every copy verified

Files are first copied to a staging folder and checked with a SHA-256 checksum. Only then do they replace the existing backup.

Earlier versions

Replaced files go to the “Versions” folder and are kept for 30, 90 or 365 days, depending on the setting.

Deletions only with confirmation

If a file disappears from the source, you decide whether it is archived or deleted permanently. This way the backup also protects against accidental deletion.

A schedule for each profile

Daily, weekly, every two weeks or monthly, separately for each account and folder. The dot in the menu bar and notifications show the status.

Cloud-only files too

If a file exists only online, the cloud provider downloads it for the backup. CloudBackup then frees up the space on your Mac again.

REQUIREMENTS

What you need

Files are stored on the drive without a proprietary format and can be opened in the Finder even without CloudBackup.
